That "frivolous" as you call it obesity case, with it's inclusion of everything you could think of was a bald faced attempt to root through 50 years of paperwork, looking for some internal memo that says something like "we know that millions of Americans are going to die from eating incredibly unhealthy Big Macs, but Americans are addicted to fat, salt and sugar, and we will make a fortune", as they did with cigarettes and the Brown and Williamson papers discovery in 1995, that, after 30 years of unsuccessful trying, finally lead to the multiple many billion dollar settlements now enriching the attorneys of America. Unless another boondoggle comes along (boob jobs, Fen-phen, whatever), they will try and try again, until they find a smoking gun.
